It's just this outpouring compassion," Gugliemo said. I think people need a piece of that more than anything. That feeling of belonging. The psychology behind that explanation for liars is as complicated as the stories they tell.
Neither Rannazzisi nor Head is quite a pathological liar — there's no evidence that they have a chronic compulsion to tell falsehoods, other than this one big one. Neither do they appear to have been suffering from false memories as some psychologists argued about Brian Williams, who inaccurately claimed to have been shot down while reporting in Iraq. Rannazzisi tweeted that he wished for many years he could take back his story, knowing that it was untrue.
But Gugliemo's explanation — that they do it for connection — is a one that psychologists have considered. Rannazzisi and Head's falsehoods are similar to what psychiatrists call Munchhausen Syndrome. Named for an 18th century German baron who became famous for telling unbelievable tales about his exploits riding bestride a cannonball, driving a sleigh pulled by a wolf, dancing a Scottish jig in a fish's stomach , a condition that causes people to feign illness or psychological trauma in order to gain sympathy.
Munchhausen patients are aware that their symptoms and stories are made up, but, like Rannazzisi, they don't know how to stop themselves from telling them. One Munchhausen sufferer, Wendy Scott, told the New York Times she faked ailments because she "just wanted to be in the hospital. The compulsion to invent trauma may go even beyond the simple need for sympathy or attention.
In a article in the journal Frontiers in Psychology, Harvard psychologist Brendan Gaesser argued that there is "neural overlap" between imagination, memory and empathy. Functional neuroimaging studies have shown that a "shared constellation of brain regions" lights up both when patients are asked to recall a personal experience and when they are prompted to empathize with another person.
This is an adaptive trait, Gaesser suggests. Our ability to imagine a shared future and remember a shared past enables us to form the groups that make us such an "evolutionary success story. It was an early taste of having a public persona, and I made a terrible mistake. The attacks on the Twin Towers was an act of mass murder unlike anything experienced in modern America. Dr Loftus, a distinguished professor in psychological science at the University of California, says most people who experience a momentous historical event over the age of eight can readily recall where they were and what they were doing when they heard the news.
And having appeared as a defense witness for some of the most vilified criminals of our time, she believes we should be more empathetic and less judgmental. And they end up believing these lies. Felipe De Brigard is a professor of philosophy and cognitive neuroscience at Duke University and works at the intersection between imagination and memory.
He says determining whether a person is being intentionally deceitful, or has come to believe their own lies, is complex. He has studied the phenomenon of confabulation in patients who had damage in the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that influences complex tasks such as planning, social interaction, personality and memory.
He says there is a point in which the pathology was such that the lie was no longer thought of as a lie. It became their truth. It is very difficult if not impossible to separate those things.
